Resolution Proposed in the Lower Chamber of the Dutch Parliament

26 200 V
nr.69
Proposed 21 April 1999

Editor's Note: The Dutch minister of foreign affairs did not advise parliament to oppose this resolution, which has not yet been voted on.


The Chamber,

Having heard the debate,

Considering that the discussion on the international legitimization of NATO out of area operations outside the treaty area should receive extra attention because of the Kosovo conflict,

Considering that the United Nations is the leading international organization in the field of peace and security;

Requests the government, in the debates on the formulation of the Strategic Concept, to argue the case for formulations based on the international rule of law and the UN charter and therefore the maximum involvement of the Security Council in such actions;

And carries on with its business.
